Phillies Injury Updates: Team to dial back Trea Turner’s rehab after soreness from Saturday’s program
The Latest Phillies Injury Updates
- Trea Turner (left hamstring strain)
- Status: 10-day injured list
- Turner was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain on May 4. He declined to reveal what grade the strain is, but said he expects to miss “six weeks or so.”
- Turner had a heavier rehab day on Saturday, hitting in the cage and increasing his running intensity. But he came out of it “a little sore today; a little stiff,” manager Rob Thomson said Sunday morning. The Phillies had planned for Turner to run the bases in San Francisco, but that’s unlikely to happen now. It’s the first time Turner has reported any sort of issue during his rehab, according to Thomson, who added that the minor setback isn’t cause for concern. (Updated by Nathan Ackerman on May 26)
- Yunior Marte (right shoulder inflammation)
- Status: 15-day injured list, retroactive to May 1
- Marte “felt a little something” after his scoreless appearance against the San Diego Padres on April 28, Thomson said. After the feeling went away, it really “flared up” during his appearance against the Los Angeles Angels on April 30. He wasn’t available during the final game of the Angels series, and ultimately was placed on the injured list on May 3.
- Marte began a rehab assignment on Saturday with Triple-A Lehigh Valley. He allowed two hits and an unearned run on 15 pitches in one inning of work. (Updated by Nathan Ackerman on May 26)
- Luis Ortiz (right shoulder inflammation)
- Status: 15-day injured list
- Ortiz has been on the injured list since March 31 with a left ankle sprain. He has progressed from that injury, even making two rehab appearances for Single-A Clearwater. However, the most recent came on April 25. That’s because he was shut down for a period with right shoulder inflammation.
- Ortiz is throwing up to 90 feet, per Thomson. (Updated by Tim Kelly on May 15.)
- Michael Rucker (right hand arterial vasospasm)
- Status: 15-day injured list
- Rucker threw a bullpen session on May 14, and is set to throw another one on May 17. (Updated by Tim Kelly on May 15)
- Dylan Covey (right shoulder strain)
- Status: 15-day injured list
- Covey is still dealing with his shoulder strain, and was backed off of throwing. As he was doing some conditioning work, he also slightly pulled a hamstring. He’s currently in Philadelphia seeing the team doctors, but is expected to head back to Clearwater Friday. (Updated by Tim Kelly on May 8)
